Clay Roueche and Pablo Escobar - Coldplay



I saw this post referring to the Rolling Stone article on Clay Roueche. They compared Clay to Pablo Escobar and it made me think about the Pablo Escobar story. My daughter just mentioned it last night while we were at an awesome little Mexican restaurant in Surrey.

Googling Pablo Escobar led me to the Ramon Milian story. Another CIA drug smuggler tied to Iran contra. He was considered Pablo Escobar’s right hand man. So here we have more drug dealers working for the CIA, betrayed by the CIA and serving life in prison for them just like Noriega. It’s all recorded in the Kerry committee. Frontiline has a video of Ramon Milian Rodriguez testifying at the Kerry committee. Felix Rodriguez was another one who worked for the CIA. It’s not that the war on drugs failed. It’s just that the CIA was on the wrong side of that war.

Although I hesitate demonizing the UN when it’s clear their violence was in response to the Hells Angels violence, I think prosecuting one without prosecuting the other is treason. I have heard of IHIT members claiming that everything was fine until they started going after the Hells Angels. All the small groups were much worse then them. That is so untrue. IHIT members who really believe that need a career change because they are on the wrong side.

Recently I heard a young choir sing a stunning remix of Coldplay’s Viva La Vida. Theirs was based on a German remix but they tweaked it a bit themselves. I hadn’t paid too much attention to the lyrics in the original Viva La Vida. I thought the line in the chorus that said For some reason I can’t explain I know saint Peter will call my name. The remix really emphasized the original says won't call my name which when you read the rest of the lyrics, makes much more sense. The guy had lived a dishonest life.

I have more compassion for Clay than I do for David Giles yet I am concerned that people don’t start idolizing the bad that Clay did. Right is right and wrong is wrong. Crack and crystal meth are horrible drugs. Slinging those evil drugs just so you can drive a new SUV is the epitome of greed. Everything that Confucius, Taoism and Zen teach against. Clay showed compassion to help his friend get off crack but profited from many others' miserable addictions.

When I think of the Coldplay remix, I think of David Giles. The fallen hobo clown who used to rule the underworld. Never an honest word was ever heard when he used to rule that underworld. For some reason I can’t explain I know saint Peter won’t call his name. Anyone can change but we need to start somewhere. If we don't try no one can help us. It all begins with uttering an honest word. Facing the truth. That is the first step on the road to redemption.

Toronto mob murder tied to the Hells Angles



Salvatore Calautti and James Tusek were shot dead at 1:00 AM Friday morning in Toronto. The Toronto Star is reporting that the Montreal RCMP claim Calautti had rung up gambling debts with the Rizzutos and the Hells Angels, which doesn’t make a lot of sense. If he was their rival, it’s unlikely he would ring up debts with them. I’m sure gambling is a part of it, but most of these mob murders are about drug trafficking territory. The fact that he was accused of shooting Nicolo Rizzuto Sr. is a far more likely motive for his murder. Amusing how the Hells Angels support the Calabrians out of Hamilton when Vito is in prison, then kiss his ass as soon as he gets out. It appears that Montreal's mob violence is spreading to Toronto.

Nova Scotia man convicted of impaired driving by drugs causing death



CBC is reporting that William Fogarty from Antigonish, N.S., been found guilty of impaired driving by drugs and causing the death of two teens. Fogarty was driving a Crown Victoria and the teens were in a Ford Mustang driven by one of the teens when the head-on collision occurred on a clear November afternoon.

Fogarty had methadone, several prescription drugs and Valium in his system when his car crossed the centre line on the two-lane road. Fogarty was found guilty of two counts of dangerous driving causing death and two counts of impaired driving by drugs causing death.

Even more tragically, if he had methadone in his system, he likely got it free from the government. The fact that he also had other drugs in his system while he was on a methadone program once again shows how that system is being abused. Mostly by doctors who over prescribe it and refuse to reduce the dosages once people are on the program. It’s a big money maker.

Police confirm FK were tied to the UN



Kim Bolan is reporting that the police confirmed earlier reports that the UN were linked to the FK in Calgary. The FOB or Fresh off the boat were connected to the Hells Angels through the Red Scorpions and the Independent Soldiers. The FK or FOB killers were tied to the UN. Which means the FK got the drugs they sold from the UN while the FOB got their drugs from the Hells Angels. This once again shows that the Hells Angels were directly involved in the drug related violence in Calgary as well. Kim is also confirming rumors that John Punko is out of jail.

62 kilos of Surrey cocaine seized at the border



The Peace arch News is reporting that Custom officials from the Pacific Border crossing seized 62.3 kilograms of cocaine destined for Surrey last month. It’s the largest seizure in BC since July 2011 when 115 kilos of cocaine were seized from the same crossing. I guess the Walrus will be choked. Then again they’ll just make the driver indebted to them for the loss.

US Treasury Department lists Israeli drug network



Here’s a link to a story a blog reader just posted in the CSIS thread. The United States Treasury Department claims Israelis played a lead role in an international drug money laundering ring. Ten Panamanian companies, 11 Colombian companies and one based in Israel allegedly built a network that laundered hundreds of millions of dollars of drug money. Kinda like “lord” Strathclyde and the HSBC did for the Mexican cartels.

I think it’s amusing an American agency will finally point the finger at an Israeli connection to drug trafficking without even mentioning Oliver North. Oliver North was the drug dealing kingpin of Iran Contra. Mossad and the Israeli drug dealers worked for and with him. Paul Lir Alexander‏ is another. Could explain why a brick of cocaine turned up in BC with a Star of David stamped on it.



Even New York Stock Exchange Chairman Richard Grasso supported FARC in Columbia. Why isn’t Richard Grasso on their drug kingpin list? I guess that would implicate all of Wall Street.

CSIS is the real enemy from within



"Phil Gibson is president of Beaumont Communications Inc., a public safety and security consultancy. He spent more than a decade in national security, as director-general of communications for the Canadian Security Intelligence Service. He began his career as a journalist working in provincial and national affairs." He is the enemy within.

He just wrote a bs article supporting CSIS' Surrey Pressure cooker nonsense. Think about it. He was the director-general of communications for the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, now runs a public safety and security consultancy front company for them and began his career as a journalist. You can’t get any cornier than that. Phil Gibson is a regular columnist at ipolitics.ca. Operation Mockingbird is in full effect.

Alex Roslin from the Now Toronto reported that while he was at the annual conference of the Canadian Association of Security and Intelligence Studies in Ottawa, Phil Gibson, CSIS director-general of communications, calls on the intelligence community to write letters to the Globe complaining about reporting they don’t like. The crowd erupts in applause.

This is a clear example of how the Canadian Intelligence agency is actively trying to con Canadians through the media as they embezzle billions of tax dollars from them. Vic Toews won't say why CSIS held Jeffrey Delisle’s file from the RCMP. We know why CSIS wouldn't share their information about the Air India bombing with the RCMP – because CSIS’ handler helped organized it and provided the explosives for it.

Phil Gibson is one of the men that should be tried for murder in the Air India bombing. He should not be a credible media source any more than Oliver North who is a Fox News host. Even the former watchdog for CSIS has been charged with fraud after he was caught wiring money to an Israeli arms dealer tied to Iran contra. That is a public security threat.

Personally, I think the artist’s sketch on the front page of today’s Surrey Leader is ridiculous propaganda. They are intentionally trying to make him look like a crazed terrorist by intentionally distorting his appearance in the drawing. No wonder the Toronto Star considers their shares in the Surrey leader to be worthless. The Surrey Leader has officially descended to tabloid status.



Nuttall's lawyer states that it is his understanding U.S. authorities were also involved and that there was some sort of "Mr. Big" component, wherein undercover agents pose as criminals to befriend and draw confessions from suspected criminals. US Intelligence agencies perhaps? Big surprise. And their handler said: We'll set everything up for you. All you have to do is say yes.

Manitoba proceeds of crime seizure



The Brandon Sun is reporting that a series of property seizures yesterday morning are related to a massive drug bust from October. In the October bust, 56 kilograms of marijuana and two kilograms of cocaine were seized along with $2 million worth of ecstasy, marijuana, cocaine and psilocybin.

Lots of names listed so I’m going to have to sort through them to determine if it was a Rock Machine bust or a Hells Angels bust. I’m told even the UN is supplying the RM out that way.

I’m told that a 2007 Ferrari is one of the seized vehicles. Since one of the suspects arrested in the October bust is from Calgary, I have to wonder if it's the Ferrari our Austin Powers friend crashed into the Atlantic ocean a while back. They do say pride cometh before the fall.

Those involved in the property seizure under file number CI13-01-84362 in the Manitoba court registry are: Jayant David Venn, Garret James Dykun, Reid Arnold Dykun, Brian Jace Decosse, Jordon Shields, Kathleen Ruth Matheos and Sean Howe.

Shooting in Burnaby



The Burnaby NewsLeader is reporting that "A 19-year-old man is recovering in hospital after being shot several times early Wednesday morning near the Sperling SkyTrain station, say Burnaby RCMP. Just after 1 a.m. the man was shot in the arm and body, around Greenwood Avenue and Winston Street. He was taken to hospital with serious but non-life threatening injuries. No one else was injured." CBC is reporting that "Police say the victim knew the shooter and investigators believe the shooting was targeted. The victim is known to police." The Vancouver Sun reported three Burnaby shootings in April.

Quebec Train derailment



The train derailment and fire in Quebec has been a complete tragedy. The Globe and Mail is reporting that “The Transportation Safety Board of Canada has confirmed a railway employee was present at the scene when firefighters dealt with a locomotive blaze, just before the freight train carrying crude oil careened at high speeds into Lac-Mégantic and exploded.”

“The safety board's comments at a briefing in town Tuesday morning follow comments by the head of the company at the centre of the tragedy that suggested firefighters had shut down the locomotive – disabling its brakes – hours before it rolled out of control.”

Somehow we’ve gone from that to “Oh the brakes had been tampered with” and a criminal probe is under way. That’s much more believable than saying someone screwed up. Let’s even seize the day and call it a terrorist attack.

We know that when CN was privatized the greedy corporation obsessed with profits greatly reduced brake maintenance and made longer trains. Here in BC with all the mountains and hills, that meant an increase in train derailments. If that was the case, then a legal liability would naturally follow and the company certainly wouldn’t want that.

Like any serious traffic accident, before we start arguing about blame, we need to tend to the dead and injured and grieve the tragedy. In time an investigation will take place as to cause and fault. Let’s take time for due process before we jump to dramatic conclusions. When trains go fast down hills they derail because their brakes fail, not because of a fire.

Quebec police inspector Michel Forget ruled out terrorism as a cause, but said Tuesday that an array of other possibilities remain under investigation, including criminal negligence. Criminal negligence in this case would include the company laying off employees and reducing brake maintenance. After all, the president of the railway at the centre of the Lac-Megantic tragedy admitted that the handbrakes on his company's train might not have been applied properly.

The Ottawa citizen is reporting that “Burkhardt appeared to take responsibility for the disaster, saying the handbrakes might not have been properly applied on the train, a different response from previous days when the company appeared to blame firefighters.” Our condolences to everyone in Quebec who has lost loved ones through this tragedy.

Update: Former rail engineer speaks out about cost cutting safety hazards
